In 2020, the US will celebrate the centennial of women's suffrage. Because of the work of women's rights activists in the US and across the globe, women are in positions of leadership and influence in unprecedented numbers. Women leaders have the opportunity to shape the world around them in ways that reflect their experiences, sense of place, needs, values, their realities and those of their families. This panel features a conversation about vision, leadership and modeling a world that in principle and in physical reality welcomes women. Lynn Yeakel, MSM, moderates this panel that includes an architect/urban planner, a health expert and a social scientist who explore the themes of this conference in the context of ways we can shape the near future--2020.
